Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf die Befestigung für eine Blinkleuchte benachbart einem Scheinwerfer eines Kraftfahrzeuges, der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 erläuterten Art.The invention relates to the attachment for a flashing light adjacent to a headlight of a motor vehicle, the type explained in the preamble of claim 1.

Aus der DE-PS 30 44 313 ist eine Befestigung für eine Blinkleuchte oder einen Scheinwerfer eines Kraftfahrzeuges bekannt, wobei die Blinkleuchte oder der Scheinwerfer in einer Mulde eines Karosseriebauteiles aufgenommen und über einem an ihrem Gehäuse ausgebildeten Drehpunkt schwenkbar an einer Aufnahme in der Mulde abgestützt und über ein an ihr ausgebildetes oder befestigtes Federbauteil belastet und über eine, zumindest eine Raststufe aufweisende Rastfeder in Einbaulage gehalten ist.From DE-PS 30 44 313 a fastening for a turn signal lamp or a headlight of a motor vehicle is known, the turn signal lamp or the headlight being accommodated in a recess of a body component and pivotably supported on a receptacle in the recess via a pivot point formed on its housing and is loaded via a spring component designed or fastened to it and is held in the installed position via a detent spring having at least one detent step.

Bei der bekannten Befestigung für eine Blinkleuchte oder einen Scheinwerfer wurde nicht die Situation berücksichtigt, die sich bei der unmittelbar benachbarten Anordnung von einer Blinkleuchte und einem Scheinwerfer ergibt.In the known attachment for a turn signal lamp or a headlight, the situation that arises in the immediately adjacent arrangement of a turn signal lamp and a headlight was not taken into account.

Aus der DE-OS 35 16 711 ist eine Befestigung für eine Blinkleuchte benachbart einem Scheinwerfer eines Kraftfahrzeuges bekannt, bei der die in einer Mulde eines Karosseriebauteiles aufgenommene Blinkleuchte über an ihrem Gehäuse ausgebildete oder befestigte Federorgane mit dem benachbarten Scheinwerfer und Teilen der Karosseriemulde verrastet ist.From DE-OS 35 16 711 a mounting for a turn signal lamp adjacent to a headlight of a motor vehicle is known, in which the flashing light received in a recess of a body component is locked to the adjacent headlight and parts of the body recess via spring members formed or fastened on its housing.

Bei dieser bekannten Befestigung für eine Blinkleuchte benachbart einem Scheinwerfer eines Kraftfahrzeuges, wird davon ausgegangen, daß die erforderlichen Einstellvorrichtungen zum Einstellen des Scheinwerfers von der Rückseite des Scheinwerfers her bedienbar sind.In this known attachment for a turn signal lamp adjacent to a headlight of a motor vehicle, it is assumed that the necessary adjustment devices for adjusting the headlight can be operated from the rear of the headlight.

Bei einer Blinkleuchte, die benachbart einem Nebelscheinwerfer im Stoßfänger eines Kraftfahrzeuges angeordnet ist, ist eine Zugänglichkeit von Einstellvorrichtungen von der Rückseite des Scheinwerfers her nicht in günstiger Weise gegeben.In the case of a turn signal lamp which is arranged adjacent to a fog lamp in the bumper of a motor vehicle, accessibility of adjustment devices from the rear of the headlight is not given in a favorable manner.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, eine Befestigung für eine Blinkleuchte benachbart einem Scheinwerfer eines Kraftfahrzeuges zu schaffen, die über entsprechende Federorgane nicht nur in ihrer Einbaulage gehalten wird, sondern darüber hinaus in einer Vormontagelage gehalten werden kann, um den Zugang zu einer von vorn zugänglichen Einstellvorrichtung des Scheinwerfers zu ermöglichen.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a fixture for a turn signal lamp adjacent to a headlight of a motor vehicle, which is not only held in its installed position by means of corresponding spring elements, but can also be held in a preassembly position in order to gain access to one from the front to allow accessible adjustment of the headlamp.

Gemäß der Erfindung wird diese Aufgabe gelöst, indem eine Befestigung für eine Blinkleuchte benachbart einem Scheinwerfer eines Kraftfahrzeuges, der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 erläuterten Art, die im Kennzeichenteil des Patentanspruches 1 aufgezeigten Merkmale aufweist.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that a fastening for a turn signal lamp adjacent to a headlight of a motor vehicle, of the type explained in the preamble of claim 1, has the features indicated in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Dadurch, daß die Rastfeder zumindest eine weitere Raste für eine Vormontagelage aufweist, in der sie die Blinkleuchte in einer stabilen Position hält, bis die Einstellung des benachbarten Scheinwerfers an der Endmontagelinie des Kraftfahrzeuges erfolgt ist, wird eine einfache Einstellung des Scheinwerfers ermöglicht, obwohl die Einstellvorrichtung so angeordnet ist, daß sie bei fertig montierter Anordnung von außen nicht sichtbar ist, was z.B. aus stilistischen Gründen gewünscht wird.The fact that the detent spring has at least one further detent for a preassembly position in which it holds the turn signal lamp in a stable position until the adjustment of the adjacent headlamp on the final assembly line of the motor vehicle enables easy adjustment of the headlamp, although the adjustment device is arranged so that it is not visible from the outside when fully assembled, which is desirable, for example, for stylistic reasons.

In den Ansprüchen 2 und 3 sind weitere Einzelheiten der Erfindung erläutert.Claims 2 and 3 explain further details of the invention.

Die Erfindung wird anhand eines in den Zeichnungen gezeigten Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert. Es zeigt:

Fig. 1
eine schematische Frontansicht auf eine Blinkleuchte-Scheinwerfer-Anordnung im Stoßfänger eines Kraftfahrzeuges;
Fig. 2
zeigt einen horizontalen Schnitt entlang der Linie II-II in Fig. 1 und
In Fig. 1 ist in einem Stoßfänger oder einem Karosseriebauteil 1 in einer Mulde 2 eine Blinkleuchte 3 benachbart einem Nebelscheinwerfer 4 angeordnet.The invention is explained in more detail using an exemplary embodiment shown in the drawings. It shows:
Fig. 1
a schematic front view of a turn signal headlight arrangement in the bumper of a motor vehicle;
Fig. 2
shows a horizontal section along the line II-II in Fig. 1 and
In Fig. 1, a flashing light 3 is arranged adjacent to a fog lamp 4 in a bumper or a body component 1 in a recess 2.

Die erfindungsgemäße Befestigung wird anhand des horizontalen Schnittes der Figur 2 näher erläutert.The attachment according to the invention is explained in more detail with reference to the horizontal section in FIG. 2.

In der Figur 2 ist in einem z.B. ein Karosseriefrontende bildenden Stoßfänger 1 eine Aufnahmemulde 2 sowohl für eine Blinkleuchte 3 als auch für einen Nebelscheinwerfer 4 vorgesehen. Bei der Mulde 2 muß es sich hierbei keineswegs um eine vollständige Mulde handeln, diese kann vielmehr lediglich durch bestimmte nach innen zurückgezogene Randbereiche 5 und 6 des Stoßfängers 1 gebildet sein, die zur Aufnahme der Blinkleuchte 3 und des Nebelscheinwerfers 4 vorgesehen sind.In Figure 2, e.g. a bumper 1 forming body front end, a receiving trough 2 is provided both for a turn signal lamp 3 and for a fog lamp 4. The trough 2 does not have to be a complete trough, this can rather only be formed by certain inwardly retracted edge regions 5 and 6 of the bumper 1, which are provided for receiving the turn signal lamp 3 and the fog lamp 4.

Der Nebelscheinwerfer 4 besteht hierbei im wesentlichen aus einem Scheinwerfergehäuse 7, das vorn durch eine Scheinwerfer-Lichtscheibe 8 und hinten durch ein Einstellgehäuse 9 und einen Verschlußdeckel 10 abgeschlossen ist, wobei letzterer ein Auswechseln der Lampenanordnung 11 ermöglicht.The fog lamp 4 here essentially consists of a headlight housing 7, which is closed at the front by a headlight lens 8 and at the rear by an adjusting housing 9 and a closure cover 10, the latter allowing the lamp arrangement 11 to be replaced.

Das Scheinwerfergehäuse 7 weist an seiner zur Mitte des Fahrzeuges liegenden Seite einen länglichen Vorsprung 12 auf, der in einer entsprechenden Öffnung 13 im Rand 6 des Stoßfängers 1 aufgenommen wird.The headlight housing 7 has on its side lying towards the center of the vehicle an elongated projection 12 which is received in a corresponding opening 13 in the edge 6 of the bumper 1.

Das Scheinwerfergehäuse 7 ist zur Außenseite des Fahrzeuges hin mit einem vertikalen Steg 14 versehen, an dem sich ein Erweiterungsbauteil 15 anschließt, das eine Aufnahmemulde für die Blinkleuchte 3 bildet. Das Ende der Aufnahmemulde 15 ist über eine Schraube/Federmutter-Befestigung 16/17 am Rand 5 der Mulde 2 des Stoßfängers 1 befestigt.The headlight housing 7 is provided on the outside of the vehicle with a vertical web 14, to which an extension component 15 connects, which forms a receiving recess for the turn signal lamp 3. The end of the receiving trough 15 is fastened to the edge 5 of the trough 2 of the bumper 1 via a screw / spring nut attachment 16/17.

Die Blinkleuchte 3 besteht im wesentlichen aus einem Blinkleuchtengehäuse 18 mit z.B. einer inneren farbigen Lichtscheibe 19 und einer äußeren farbneutralen Lichtscheibe 20, die normalerweise mit ihrer Außenkontur in einer Linie mit der Scheinwerfer-Lichtscheibe 8 liegt.The turn signal lamp 3 essentially consists of a turn signal lamp housing 18 with e.g. an inner colored lens 19 and an outer color-neutral lens 20 which is normally in line with the outer contour of the headlight lens 8.

Zur Einstellung des Nebelscheinwerfers 4 ist eine herkömmliche Einstellvorrichtung 22 als Ganzes bezeichnet, deren Einzelheiten nicht näher erläutert zu werden brauchen. Die Einstellvorrichtung 22 ist von vorne aus mittels eines Einstellwerkzeuges, wie z.B. eines Schraubendrehers 24 (in Strich-Punkt-Linien angedeutet) betätigbar.To adjust the fog lamp 4, a conventional adjusting device 22 is designated as a whole, the details of which need not be explained in more detail. The adjusting device 22 is from the front by means of an adjusting tool, e.g. a screwdriver 24 (indicated by dash-dot lines) can be actuated.

Die Einstellung eines solchen Nebelscheinwerfers muß hierbei zweckmäßigerweise erst nach vollständig montiertem Fahrzeug erfolgen, da erst bei voll ausgerüstetem Fahrzeug die entsprechende gewünschte Leuchtweite zuverlässig eingestellt werden kann.The setting of such a fog lamp must expediently take place only after the vehicle has been fully assembled, since the corresponding desired lighting range can only be reliably set when the vehicle is fully equipped.

Die Blinkleuchte ist an ihrem Blinkleuchtengehäuse 18 mit einem Rastvorsprung 26 versehen, der in einer Aufnahmeöffnung 27 an einer Konsole 28 des Erweiterungsbauteiles 15 aufgenommen wird. Über eine Feder 30 und eine Abstützrippe 31 stützt sich das Blinkleuchtengehäuse 18 innerhalb des Erweiterungsbauteiles 15 ab und das zur Fahrzeugmitte hinweisende Ende 32 des Blinkleuchtengehäuses 18 nimmt in einer Aufnahmeöffnung 33 den einen Schenkel 34 einer Rastfeder 35 auf, die sich mit ihrem freien Schenkel 36 am Steg 14 des Scheinwerfergehäuses 7 abstützt.The turn signal lamp is provided on its turn signal lamp housing 18 with a locking projection 26, which is received in a receiving opening 27 on a bracket 28 of the extension component 15. Via a spring 30 and a support rib 31, the turn signal housing 18 is supported within the extension component 15 and the end 32 of the turn signal housing 18 pointing towards the center of the vehicle receives in one receiving opening 33 one leg 34 of a detent spring 35, which is supported with its free leg 36 on the web 14 of the headlight housing 7.

Die im wesentlichen L-förmige Rastfeder 35 ist mit ihrem einen Schenkel 34 am Blinkleuchtengehäuse 18 in herkömmlicher Weise festgelegt und weist an ihrem freien Schenkel 36 zumindest zwei Rastmulden 37 und 38 auf, mit denen sie mit einem Wulst 39 am Steg 14 zusammenwirken kann.The essentially L-shaped detent spring 35 is fixed with its one leg 34 to the turn signal lamp housing 18 in a conventional manner and has at least two detent troughs 37 and 38 on its free leg 36, with which it can cooperate with a bead 39 on the web 14.

Bei der Endmontage des Kraftfahrzeuges wird im montierten Stoßfänger 1 zunächst die Baugruppe des Nebelscheinwerfers 4 montiert, darauffolgend wird die Baugruppe der Blinkleuchte 3 montiert, wobei jedoch das vordere Ende der Blinkleuchte nur in die erste Rastmulde 38 eingerastet wird, wodurch sie sich in ihrer Vormontagelage befindet, die in Figur 2 durch gestrichelte Linien angedeutet ist. In dieser Vormontagelage ist die Einstellvorrichtung 22 mittels eines Werkzeuges, z.B. eines in Strich-Punkt-Linien angedeuteten Schraubendrehers 24 von vorn zugänglich.During the final assembly of the motor vehicle, the assembly of the fog lamp 4 is first mounted in the assembled bumper 1, then the assembly of the turn signal lamp 3 is mounted, but the front end of the turn signal lamp is only snapped into the first recessed recess 38, as a result of which it is in its pre-assembly position , which is indicated in Figure 2 by dashed lines. In this pre-assembly position, the adjusting device 22 can be removed using a tool, e.g. of a screwdriver 24 indicated in dash-dot lines accessible from the front.

Sobald der Nebelscheinwerfer 4 durch Betätigen der Einstellvorrichtung 22 korrekt eingestellt ist, ist es lediglich erforderlich, nach Entfernen des Werkzeuges von Hand aus auf das vordere Ende der Blinkleuchte 3 zu drücken, wodurch die Rastfeder 35 veranlaßt wird, in die zweite Rastmulde 37 einzufallen in der die Blinkleuchte 3 in ihrer Einbaulage festgehalten wird.As soon as the fog lamp 4 is correctly adjusted by actuating the adjusting device 22, it is only necessary to press the front end of the turn signal lamp 3 by hand after removing the tool, as a result of which the detent spring 35 is caused to fall into the second detent depression 37 in FIG the flashing light 3 is held in its installed position.

An der in Figur 2 gezeigten Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind am freien Schenkel 36 der L-förmigen Rastfeder 35 oben und unten abgewinkelte Hebelarme 40/41 vorgesehen, die in einer Werkzeugaufnahme 42 enden, wodurch mittels eines Schraubendrehers ein einfacheres Einrasten der Rastfeder 35 in die jeweils gewünschte Einbaulage oder die Vormontagelage bewerkstelligt werden kann.In the embodiment of the invention shown in FIG. 2, lever arms 40/41, which are angled at the top and bottom, are provided on the free leg 36 of the L-shaped latching spring 35 end of a tool holder 42, whereby a simple engagement of the detent spring 35 into the respectively desired installation position or the preassembly position can be accomplished by means of a screwdriver.

Die Ausführungsform der Rastfeder kann selbstverständlich in weiten Bereichen variiert werden, sofern gewährleistet wird, daß neben der Raststufe für die Einbaulage auch eine entsprechende Raststufe für eine Vormontagelage vorgesehen wird.The embodiment of the detent spring can of course be varied over a wide range, provided that it is ensured that, in addition to the detent step for the installation position, a corresponding detent step is also provided for a preassembly position.
